The United States Armored Cruiser New York (also known as USS New York [ACR-2/CA-2]) was the second United States Navy armored cruiser so designated; the first was the ill-fated Maine, which was soon redesignated a second-class battleship. Due to the unusually protracted construction of Maine, New York was actually the first armored cruiser to enter U.S. Navy service. The United States Armored Cruiser Brooklyn was a key vessel in the Battle of Santiago de Cuba on 3 July, in which the Spanish Fleet was destroyed. It is referred to as the USS Brooklyn (ACR-3/CA-3).
